Power Plant Engineering for captive power plant

  Power plant safety practices are crucial to ensure the well-being of employees, the environment, and the general public. Here are some key safety practices:   General Safety Practices 1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Ensure workers wear PPE, such as hard hats, safety glasses, gloves, and respirators, as required. 2. Training and Awareness: Provide regular training on safety procedures, emergency response plans, and equipment operation. 3. Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment ( HIRA): Identify potential hazards and assess risks to implement controls and mitigations. 4. Lockout/Tagout: Implement PTW and lockout/tagout procedures for equipment maintenance and repairs. 5. Fire Safety: Implement fire prevention and response measures, including fire extinguishers and emergency response plans.   Power Plant Specific Safety Practices 1. Electrical Safety: Ensure electrical equipment is properly maintained, and workers follow electrical safety pro...

  How to design ACC and specification guideline: 1.     Fundamental design consideration: ·        Heat Load and Performance: Size the ACC at maximum steam flow and heat rejection duty at peak ambient temperature ( often summer ambient dry bulb temperature consider). The process margin and extreme conditions are also considered. ·        Low IDT means larger size ( size of the ACC inversely proportional to ITD), ITD is maintained 15-16deg.C ·        ITD = TCond – Tamb, ITD= Initial temperature difference ·        Heat Load/ ITD = Constant ·        Q rejected = U.A. LMTD where U is heat transfer coefficient, A is surface area of the      condenser ·        Thermal duty= Q(required)= Ms x(h steam at turbine exhaust – h condensate), Ms is steam flow at tu...
